That's a bureaucratic solution.

But it doesn't really get at the heart of the issue. Eliezer acts that way because of the Roko affair and people telling him that he shouldn't have moderated. In that case the decision being made by three people instead of one wouldn't have made it more defensible.

This forum currently has MIRI ties that make controversial moderating decisions reflect badly on MIRI. A solution would be to cut those ties and give LW into the hand of a small group of moderators who are more free to focus on what's good for the community instead of larger PR effects.
